It became an international hit in the spring of the year, reaching number four in the United Kingdom and number five in Germany. It also reached the Top 10 in Australia.
"If You Can't Give Me Love" was released a year later in North America, becoming a medium hit in the U.S. at number 45.

Well, I've seen you before
On the discoteque floor
You were driving me out of my mind
Oh, but I could have sworn
That I saw something more
In your eyes
Oh though you were surrounded
By beauty unbounded
Your glance is intended for me
And though I tried to hide it
I found myself lookin' to see
So, then you took your chances
You made your advances
Your touch took my breath away
But when you said hello
Are you ready to go
Well, I had just one thing to say
If you can't give me love
Honey, that ain't enough
Let me go look for somebody else
If you can't give me feelings
With old fashioned meanings
Then just stay in love with yourself
If you can't give me love (love)
If you can't give me love (love)
If you can't give me love (love)
If you can't give me love (love)
If you can't give me love (love)
Well, you may be the king
Of this discoteque thing
But honey, I ain't looking for that
What I need is a man
Not some so called aristocrat
Oh if only you'd waited
Or just hesitated
Oh maybe just asked me to dance
But you really don't know
Why I don't wanna go
And baby, that's why we don't stand a chance
So if you can't give me love
Honey, that ain't enough
Let me go look for somebody else
If you can't give me feelings
With old fashioned meanings
Then just stay in love with yourself
If you can't give me love (love)
If you can't give me love (love)
If you can't give me love (love)
If you can't give me love (love)
If you can't give me love (love)
Oh, if you can't give me love
Honey, that ain't enough
Let me go look for somebody else
And if you can't give me feelings
With old fashioned meanings
Then just stay in love with yourself
If you can't give me love
Honey, that ain't enough
Let me go look for somebody else
If you can't give me feelings
With old fashioned meanings
Then just stay in love with yourself
If you can't give me love (love)
If you can't give me love (love)
If you can't give me love (love)
If you can't give me love (love)
If you can't give me love (love)
If you can't give me love (love)
If you can't give me love (love)
If you can't give me love (love)
Give me love
Give me love
Give me love
Give me love
(Love)
(Love)
(Love)
(Love)
Na na na na na love (love)
Na na na na na love (love)
